Trade and local sites
Primary keyword: handyman website · Intent: commercial investigation · One URL, one query. Not a city doorway.
A handyman site that says we do it all will attract the job you should have refused.
This article is written for people searching handyman website (commercial investigation intent). It is not a city doorway and not a ranking package. Product facts we will defend: Free is live on you.bizzit.io after Google sign-in, 50 Cipher turns, no daily cap. Pro is $12 a month. First-year domain names bought here carry a 25% markup. We do not invent competitor prices or statistics.
The converting handyman page is a list: rods, switches, a sticking door, a TV that needs two people, and the jobs you send to a licensed trade. Homeowners use it to see whether Tuesday is a $150 minimum or a shrug. Cipher builds from a written brief and photos of a tidy punch list you finished — a rod, a latch, a caulked tub — not from a canvas of dream renovations. Free: you.bizzit.io, Google sign-in, 50 Cipher turns, no daily cap. Pro: $12 a month, custom domain, unlimited Cipher, overnight jobs from the brief, checkout on your payment account if you take a booking fee. We are not a general-contractor project tool.
A punch-list form with photos and a yes to the hour minimum.
What a handyman site is actually for
Small repairs and installs you can finish in a visit, plus a clear no list for licensed trades.
A punch-list form with photos and a yes to the hour minimum. If the homepage cannot do that in one screen, it is a poster. Rebuild from the nouns in the brief below, not from a prettier layout.
Pages that earn their keep
Typical jobs. A concrete list. Cipher will write anything if you say miscellaneous. If this screen cannot settle “is this my handyman?”, delete it.
Hour minimum. The number that prevents a 12-minute switch from wrecking the route. Keep only the jobs you still take — Cipher will invent a menu you do not run.
Too big / licensed. Electrical panels, gas, structural, and roofs you will not touch. Write the rule a stranger would ask on the phone.
Supplies. You pick up versus they buy. Receipts on whose card. Proof belongs here: a photo of your room, van, or work, not a stock set.
Two-person jobs. TVs, granite leftover, anything that needs a helper — priced as such. Hours and a number that rings beat a second slogan.
Skip a blog, a city-per-URL map, and a week-view that does not hold a real slot. This handyman site needs A punch-list form with photos and a yes to the hour minimum. — not a second product Cipher invented.
Write the brief like an operator, not a slogan
Handyman. Hour minimum is stated. Typical: rods, doors, caulk, swap fixtures that do not need a permit. We do not open panels, gas, or roofs. Send a photo list. If it needs a helper, we say so before we drive. Towns we take are listed. Upload: a rod we hung, a door latch, a caulked tub corner.
Paste that into brief builder or Create. If the preview is the wrong trade, the nouns were wrong. Fifty free Cipher turns exist so you can name this offer before you pay for a domain.
Photos Cipher cannot honestly invent
A hung rod, a door that closes, a caulked joint, your labeled bins in the van. No stock toolbelt hero shot on a roof you would not climb.
Hero and product (or service) shots are different jobs. Upload what you have. If you have nothing, say so in the brief rather than letting Cipher guess a restaurant table for a shop that is not a restaurant.
Hours, NAP, and the action you want
Route days and a cutoff for same-week adds. You are not 24/7. Schema should match the callback window.
Format the name, address, and phone once with the NAP formatter. Hours that search engines can read belong in JSON-LD as well as on the page — use hours schema and keep them identical to the door. Google’s local-business structured data is on Search Central.
Local search without spam city pages
GBP: handyman if that is the category you qualify for. Hours are office/callback. Service area is the towns you still take for a small job — do not imply a 90-minute drive for a $150 minimum. One NAP. No city doorway pages.
Mistakes that make the URL useless
Write we do it all and then refuse the first panel. On this trade that is how you lose the first honest visitor.
Hide the hour minimum until you are in the driveway. Cut it before you publish. Cipher will put it back if the brief is adjectives.
Let Cipher add kitchen remodels because you once hung cabinets. If the preview already has it, rebuild from nouns, do not decorate it.
Use only finished renovation photos that look like a GC. That pattern belongs to a different business. Do not keep it on this URL.
What not to buy this as
Bizzit is not permit software, a crew scheduler, or a GC punch app. The site is the list, the minimum, and the photo ask.
Bizzit hosts the public rulebook: hours, offer, the action. $12 is not a replacement SKU we have not shipped. Keep the software you already pay for if that is the stack you need.
The no list belongs above the fold
Panels, gas, structural. Put them in the brief so they render as a refusal, not a footer. The right customer is relieved. The wrong one leaves before you burn a morning explaining.
Photos of small work convert small work
A rod and a latch tell the truth. A marble kitchen tells them you are a remodeler with a hidden minimum. Upload the small jobs.
Minimum as a number, not a vibe
Write the hour minimum. Cipher cannot infer it from quality craftsmanship. If you waive it for neighbors, that is a sentence, not a secret.
What Bizzit will and will not do
You describe the business. Cipher builds a site. You preview it. You publish on a Bizzit hostname for free after Google sign-in. Free includes 50 Cipher turns with no daily cap. Pro is $12 a month for unlimited Cipher edits, a custom domain, overnight jobs from the brief, checkout on your payment account, no Bizzit badge. Domain names you buy here show a first-year price with a 25% markup on the registrar wholesale. We do not take a cut of your sales. We are not a CRM, a dispatcher, or a review factory. If a sentence would require us to pretend we shipped a feature we have not shipped, it does not belong on this page.
Cost: the slug is free. The name is $12 a month plus the domain.
Stay on you.bizzit.io until the page is doing work. Twelve months of Pro is $144. The registrar line is separate. Cancel Pro from the account if the month is dead; the domain you bought is still yours to keep or let lapse. Read pricing and cancel anytime before you treat $12 as a personality.
How to ship a handyman site this week
- Write the brief with towns, hours, prices you will honor, and the action — A punch-list form with photos and a yes to the hour minimum.
- Upload photos that match this trade: A hung rod, a door that closes, a caulked joint, your labeled bins in the van. No stock toolbelt hero shot on a roof you would not climb.
- Sign in with Google. Preview on wide, mid, and phone. If it is the wrong trade, rebuild.
- Publish free on you.bizzit.io. Send the slug to one person who will tell you the truth.
- Then consider Pro at $12 and a domain. First-year names bought here carry a 25% markup.
Handyman is the brief Cipher most often inflates into remodeling. Your no list is the product. Spend Free turns deleting licenses you do not hold. A QR on the invoice should open the punch-list form, not a mood board. Pro overnight jobs can mark booked this week; they will not sequence your stops.
Tools that actually do this job
These are public pages. Use them when the job is this job. They are not a second product you have to buy.
Questions people actually ask
Can I take a card hold for the minimum on the site?
Pro checkout is your processor, no Bizzit cut. Many handymen still collect at the end of the visit. Write what you do.
Will Cipher keep a running punch list for each house?
No CRM. Each request is a form. You can ask them to paste last month's leftovers in the box.
Should I split this from my electrician site?
If you are licensed and bid panels, that is a different intent than rods. Two briefs, two first sentences, two URLs.
What is overnight jobs in this trade?
On Pro, jobs you described — a booked-out banner, a seasonal note. Not a dispatcher assigning Tuesday's switches.
What query is this URL for?
The primary keyword is “handyman website”. Neighboring links are other intents. We do not mint a city clone for the same offer.
